accidents
it's been the life of accidents. prone.


i've stayed up till like 2 am at greg's house like 3 consecutive nights (tues, wed, thurs) playing pes5.


the main reason i kept coming back was that i just had to succeed in beating his brazil with argentina. it was difficult cuz he just needed a simple through pass and a finish to score (even though he was using a joystick). in the end after 2 nights i had beaten him only twice, while he won/drew like 10 times.




hella good game, if only he's com won't keep crashing.

the 2nd reason would be playing battlefield 2, which is just such a wonderful game. of course the down side is that you need such a powerful graphics card.

damn. i need a new game.


yesterday was our much awaited cycling trip. cycled along the coastal road to reach changi bumboat terminal from nsc. tiring stuff, kinda strains the back. victoria was having a crash course on how to bike, and the first order of the day was cycling straight with potholes on one side and trucks, lorries speeding past on the other. fun.

pulau ubin was ok lah.


i guess the only fun part was getting caught in the downpour like 1k from reaching back to nsc. so i entered the canteen absolutely drenched head to toe to see gandhi, justin and shu yan staring at me.

and i decided it wasn't the best time to bring back sailing stuff. will have to come back on monday after dental.

on another note:

changes to the sailing scene - cai wants to move on. maxi's going to study in melbourne. while siobhan is sailing radial. <- former byte champ.

while greg has dipped his feet into the sea water after like, what, 5 months?

on wednesday morning (730) i'll be going with the team to brisbane (mooloolaba, anyone?). not sure we'll get to use internet, so i guess this'll be the start of a hiatus... (not like i post very often anyway).

and as of now i'm holding 8 months' worth of receipts in my hand. heh.

my cousin scored 195 in his psle. good cuz then he's going to barker instead of my school - no need to see him asking me to kick a ball around for him or smth (or ask me to play maple story lol).

haven't touched my jukebox for a while. meanwhile i met these two girls at suntec who helped me to giftwrap some stuff. they're both going to watch dream theater too, haha.


the following song is for jason liu, who's departing for canada on the 26th. won't to get to see you off man.

I'm looking down now that it's over
Reflecting on all of my mistakes
I thought I found the road to somewhere
Somewhere in His grace
I cried out, 'Heaven save me'
But I'm down to one last breath
And with it let me say, let me say

Hold me now
I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinkin'
Maybe six feet
Ain't so far down
